Behind a facade of Midwestern normalcy, Dennis Rader hid a life of bloodlust, sadism, and murder beyond imagining. The upstanding family man, Scout leader, and church board president was well liked and trusted by his Wichita community. Kansans -- and all of America -- would never recover from the truth: He was BTK, the madman who bound, tortured, and killed ten victims over the course of three decades. Drawing on extensive interviews, including exclusive access to Rader's pastor and congregation, bestselling author Stephen Singular chronicles the horrific crimes, the investigation, the capture, and confession of BTK -- and, more deeply than any other account, reveals how his 2005 arrest shattered and challenged those in a circle of faith who thought they knew him best.

From AudioFile:
When Dennis Rader was finally caught in 2005, he was so relieved to be able to reveal his secret life that he confessed for 32 hours nonstop. Rader, a Scout leader, faithful churchgoer, husband, and father was also BTK, the sadistic killer who terrorized Wichita, Kansas, for thirty years. Drawing from over 300 pages of Rader's testimony, as well as interviews with co-workers, neighbors, and the pastor of the Rader's congregation, journalist Stephen Singular objectively presents the many faces of the monster-next-door. Alan Sklar's narration makes this macabre true-crime a standout. His storytelling is dignified. His gentle, comforting tones make hearing even the most lurid details almost bearable. Sklar's understated, intelligent presentation makes for compelling listening. S.J.H. © AudioFile 2007, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine
